An Optimality Theory Account of the Non-concatenative Morphology of the Nominal System of Libyan Arabic, with Special Reference to the Broken Plural [PDF]
This work presents a full and unified investigation of the phenomenon of non-concatenative nominal morphology in Libyan Arabic (LA), with special reference to the formation of the broken plural (BP). The analysis provides a morphophonological account of

Phonology or non phonology? That is the question (in intonation)
The paper would like to challenge the basic tenet of Autosegmental Theory of Intonation, i.e. that in non-tonal languages it is possible to deal with intonation in phonological terms.

One-Level Phonology: Autosegmental Representations and Rules as Finite Automata
this paper we present a finite-state model of phonology in which automata are the descriptions and tapes (or strings) are the objects being described.

Modelling Autosegmental Phonology with Multi-Tape Finite State Transducers
Phonology may be briefly defined as the study of sound patterns in spoken language. One of the most well-known computational models of phonology, Koskenniemi's two-level phonology, is based on an underlying linguistic theory that has been superseded
